Once a year, we come together to reflect on our work, learn from one another, and simply unwind over fun activities and yummy food. This year's staff retreat will be Thursday, September 27 at Baltimore Center Stage.
To prepare for the big day, we're calling for volunteers to help with some of the break-out session planning. (We've got to make good use of the stage space, after all!) Sign up here by Friday, August 17, once you have discussed this opportunity with your supervisor.
And don't forget about the BEST staff retreat tradition of all—core value awards! The nomination period is open August 8-September 7 so be sure to nominate your colleagues who most embody our core values.
As details are finalized, we will share it with you right here.
